What's up guys? So I was cruising through destiny tracker looking at my stats and what not, and came across my sniper kills. Upon further inspection, I started to look at the percentage of kills I have with it that came via headshot. I use a longbow in pvp and am sitting at about 65% precision kills. The best snipers on the leader boards have about 75% or a little higher.
So, what is your percentage? What sniper do you use? What makes a good sniper in general?
Discuss.
Edit: lots of love for the longbow and prudence (PR too of course). Highest so far is 79% although I haven't checked if that's legit or not. Keep the discussion going guardians!
Edit 2: We made it on the trending page, something one of my posts have never accomplished before. I thank you all for the quality of discussion, as well as the respect being shown for everyone (no hate!). I'm trying to respond to everything so I apologize if I miss you! :)
Edit 3: I got drunk and failed to answer a lot of you guys, but I appreciate the input! It's the cons of being a college student lol, keep it up guys! Still seeing a lot of love for the longbow, could it be the best sniper?? I think so, keep discussing though! :)
Edit 4:[b]use destiny tracker to find precision ratio. The stats found on this app include pve, which is something we are not concerned with for this discussion.[/b]
Last edit: (used to be about finding a ToO team, accomplished by now.) Now, I have a random question for anyone who may know... [b]What does the "hidden hand" perk actually do? I assume it increases aim assist, but I can't find any info as to how much... If anyone has some definitive answers, it would be greatly appreciated!![/b]

No battle scars except maybe a paper cut

For me it's actually contributing to the team, so many snipers sit at the back of the map get 4 kills and go plus 4 and let the game pass them by a good player should be getting 10 kills a game minimum

A pro sniper leaves no mark, no trace, and no witnesses. Only headless bodies sprawled across the battlefield. I personally use a Y09 Longbow synthesis with firefly and unflinching with max range potential. I love it.

Overall percentage really between average kill distance and precision kills. My stats are the top 3% in kill distance and 9% in precision kills.

Snipers don't leave marks...
